What is a ruin? We’re running off of “You know it when you see it” at the moment. Ruins should be non-functioning structures of some age, or their function reduced to tourism and the like.

Generally speaking, specific items from a ruin should go to !historyartifacts@lemmy.world

Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to !historyillustrations@lemmy.world

Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

We need to make Stone Arches a thing again.

Not dead sure, but I think this is the Aqueduc du Gier from around 50 C.E. It goes 85km from Mont Pilat north-east to Lyon.
